Nehemiah 3: The Builders of Jerusalem’s Wall

Jerusalem’s wall and gates are rebuilt section by section, beginning with the high priest Eliashib and the priests, who restore the Sheep Gate. Rulers, Levites, craftsmen, merchants and townspeople share the work, many repairing beside their own homes, while the nobles of Tekoa hold back from the labor.
